    Then I may have listened to some arrangement of it if Unlucky Morpheus have done it. Sadly the band went against the youtube channel that better offered access to all of their touhou albums, so I may have a hard time checking it out.

    No, I think I'm quite done with the 32X. That thing's a pain in the ass to work with. I also know jack shit about Knuckles Chaotix. There's other projects I wanna do.

    I did not know about this fact...
    There are countless versions of this music, so I think you've heard it somehow.
     
  4. That, and there isn't a disassembly of Chaotix outside of one that requires IDA Pro.

    upload_2022-7-1_18-46-28.png

    this is a project that seeks to implement all of Sonic 1's gimmicks and levels from the SMS/GG ports to the MD original
    there is no playable build yet, it's a theoretical concept for now

    I wrote a thing to automatically put the current year/month in your hack.

    Put this before the header (in the constants file or whatever):
    Code (Text):
    1.  
    2. ; Date
    3. year:       equ _year+1900
    4. month:       substr ((_month-1)*3)+1,((_month-1)*3)+3,"JANFEBMARAPRMAYJUNJULAUGSEPOCTNOVDEC"
    5. date:       equs "\#year\.\month"
    6.  
    Replace the date in the header with \date:
    Code (Text):
    1.  
    2.        dc.b "SEGA MEGA DRIVE "
    3.        dc.b "(C)SEGA \date"
    4.  
    It only works with ASM68K for the next 7977 years.

    He meant 7977 years from now, e.g. up to year 9999, the last one which fits the pattern because it doesn't require a fifth digit.

    I couldn’t find a tongue out emoji but I wanted to joke that it ‘only’ work for 7977 years was funny but I didn’t realise it was because it would take us to the year 9999 so thanks for clarifying :)

    I've never had a date that required a fifth digit - most of them are happy with two.

    You all seen a hacks, where Sonic was replaced by another characters. But have you seen hacks, where was changed Eggman?
    So, i want to present you..
    "Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog" Robotnik in Sonic 1!
    Yes, it's just a modification, where Eggman was replaced to Robotnik.
    I'll answer to a few questions:
    "Why are you made it?"
    So, i was bored, and in my head comes this idea!
    "Is it joke?"
    Um.. no :)
    Was modified all Eggman sprites!
    "Where is that S3K hack?"
    All in progress)

    I wrote a simple program for comparing compressors. Download it here.

    Trying to be useful somehow.
    1 month has passed so probably was settled long time ago already, but you can save 2 tiles from the top two rows by moving them one pixel to the left.
     
  18. You know, I was kind of hoping that I've be able to show something more complete than what is here, but that's what happens when the world decides to give you week long, crippling diarrhea... TWICE. If something seems incomplete, that's because it is; the only reason why this is getting released was due to me wanting something to show for Sonic 2's 30th anniversary, rather than skipping it entirely. So consider this a test build.

    I haven't tested on hardware, but it should run fine (but tell me of any hardware-only, game-breaking bug immediately).
    (note: use code FFFFE1:0001 to enable an incomplete French translation; all cheat codes are same as original game)
